<P>Have yet to pick one up myself.. but will possibly try this week.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>Its an RF remote, so it doesnt need line of sight.<BR />This will be a great asset to people wanting to set up a home theatre, etc type of setup where the box may not be right infront of the TV itself.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>Though.. the TV on/off part of it (or any other paired devices) will still be done via IR and not RF.</P>

<P>Just wondering i am having some issues with entering the RF Pairing Mode for the Nextbox 3.0. Anyone have some tips?</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>The instructions say:</P>
<P>Step 1 states: “Put STB or adapter to enter&nbsp;pairing mode (refer to RF PAIRING instructions supplied with STB or adapter)”. &nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>

<P>Hello,&nbsp;<LI-USER uid="609120">﻿</LI-USER></P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>I appreciate your question related to PIP feature. It does seems like move function is not supported with this new RF remote model as the "move" button no longer exists. As for changing channels, once you turn PIP on, the left PIP window is active and you can directly input your channel number for it to change. You can swap the two PIP windows, however, you can't move one window to a different corner. I'm not sure if there is some sort of key combination to move the PIP window, I'll update this thread if I find more info, thank you for understanding.&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>Any input from the Community regarding this issue?</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>

<P>Hi there Gas_Man, I find your problem quite strange and unusual at the same time. &nbsp;Basically when you press the Video Input button (On the Rogers remote) it will access the input menu of your specific TV set. When you see this menu on your TV screen, you should be aware this msenu is a feature of the TV set only, not Rogers and so the time it takes for the menu to appear or disappear is not controlled at all by the rogers or the Rogers remote but its set by the TV manufacturer in the software / firmware of the actual TV Set. Rogers has no way of controlling this so it could be caused By something else.</P>Sun, 15 May 2016 11:45:00 GMThttps://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/TV/New-Rogers-RF-remote/m-p/355544#M38437Pauly2016-05-15T11:45:00ZRe: New Rogers RF remotehttps://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/TV/New-Rogers-RF-remote/m-p/355551#M38438

Wait, so I'm not using it in RF mode? I have 2 NB3s - one in the family room and another in the bedroom upstairs. Do I have to go through the pairing instructions to activate RF mode? If so, would one affect the other? E.g. If using the one in the family room in RF mode, would it also control the one upstairs?

<P>In order to pair the remote with the box you have to point it at the box and press and hold Setup+UP. &nbsp;At this point the remote is still operating the box in IR mode so I am assuming the Setup+UP will put the box in pairing mode, as well as the remote. &nbsp;So then you take the other remote (which is not paired yet) and perform the same action with the other box. &nbsp;You might want to put some kind of sticker on one of them so you can easily distinguish one from the other, as they will be paired with different boxes.</P>Fri, 10 Jun 2016 16:59:52 GMThttps://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/TV/New-Rogers-RF-remote/m-p/357902#M38919MrMontagoose2016-06-10T16:59:52ZRe: New Rogers RF remotehttps://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/TV/New-Rogers-RF-remote/m-p/357910#M38922

<P>As far as lag is concerned the NB2 (8642) is ubearable. &nbsp;It's what drove me from Rogers in the first place a couple years ago. &nbsp;Back then that was my main PVR. &nbsp;This time around I was alittle surprised that the non-PVR box they gave me is still one of *those*. &nbsp;Yes, a power-cycle helps but the box is simply not fit for purpose, as far as I'm concerned. &nbsp;I ended up moving the main PVR up to our bedroom as that's where we do all of our TV watching (the kids split their time between the PS3 and TV so they are much less affected); plus I'm the one paying for the thing so I deserve to use it <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span> ).</P>

The problem is with the way the volume lock and input lock is implemented on this remote. It would appear that you are forced to lock volume control (and input) to a single device across all modes. So, for example, I can setup the remote to control the volume of my TV&nbsp;when in cable mode but I then have no way of controlling the volume of my AVR&nbsp;with the remote (as the volume button is locked to TV&nbsp;in every mode). Likewise the remote is setup to control video input on my TV but cannot control inputs on my AVR. The way it is setup it can essentially only turn my AVR on and off. &nbsp;I could instead lock the volume/input to AVR but would then have no way of controlling my TV.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>The previous remote could lock volume control for cable mode to another device (e.g. AVR) but you could still select another device (e.g. TV) and control volume of that device independently.

<P>Had some more issues with the remote.&nbsp; Really weird.&nbsp; For example, wanted to go to channel 500 so I pressed 5-0-0 but only the 5 showed up.&nbsp; No matter how hard I pressed the 0 key it seemed determined not to come through.&nbsp; So I made sure I pointed the remote right at the box and tried again and it finally worked.&nbsp; So I thought maybe it had "unpaired" again, so I tried to re-pair it.&nbsp; But I'm still having periodic issues.&nbsp; For example, sometimes it take 2-3 presses on a button (e.g. Info/Guide) to see its effects.&nbsp; Once it works, it works fine.&nbsp; Almost as if the remote goes to standby mode (requiring multiple presses to "wake it up"), but then when it resumes it works fine.&nbsp;</P>

<P>Just got the new remote control on Monday, for use with our Nextbox 3. Although I'd brought 2 old Atlas URC-1056 remotes with me to the Rogers store, the rep suggested we keep our NB2(8642HD) remote as that old PVR isn't RF capable, so there isn't much point in exchanging it. We could always do an exchange at a later date if we wished.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Having used the new Champion Plus URC-2125 for a couple of evenings now, I'm happy with that decision. This remote has some serious shortcomings!</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Like so many others have complained of above, my main complaint is that although this remote's RF cabability is a welcome functional improvement, it is substantially LESS usable as a multi-device universal remote than the URC-1056, due to its apparent lack of optional "unlock" modes. Its inability to allow the user to unlock on a per-device basis the volume controls and the number (and channel up/down) controls mean I have to now keep handy my AVR and DVD remotes in order to use those devices as intended. I'm going to reach out to Rogers and/or UEI to see if it's possible to unlock the missing features, and if it's not, I think it's probable I'll be returning this remote.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Some thoughts on the new remote:<BR /><BR /></P><UL><UL><LI><STRONG>ERGONOMICS: - no where near as good as the URC-1056.</STRONG><BR />- The URC-2125 is about 2cm shorter than the URC-1056 and for the most part is about 0.5cm narrower - so its buttons seem crammed in, even though it actually has 5 fewer buttons.<BR />- Although both remotes are the same width at their upper ends, the URC-2125 lacks the bulbous D-PAD area and otherwise near-straight (subtlely curved) shoulders of the older model, and it instead employs a gentle hourglass shape that tapers considerably below the playback controls (Pause/Play/RW/FF). As a result, when transitioning grip from the lower half of the remote up to the D-PAD/OK/GUIDE/Device buttons, the URC-2125 slips through the fingers far too easily, slipping further than is usually intended. I've already dropped it a few times because of this (slipped right through my my vertically-oriented hand), fortuantely at this point only onto my lap and couch. Transitioning your grip from the upper half to number keys in the lower half on the URC-2125 is also problematic due a combination of the curvature of the sides and underside, overall size of the remote (slightly shorter tail), and number button shape/design. End result: the remote either slips only to the BACK/GUIDE area (about 1/4s the way down) or I find I have to shuffle the remote with my thumb, multiple times, in order to get to the numbers. A simple flick of the wrist used to be all that was needed! And because the lower end of the URC-2125 is tapered so narrow, and because its tail is so short, the lower half of this remote is just not comfortable to hold or use.<BR /><BR /></LI><LI><STRONG>IT'S NOT A VERY GOOD UNIVERSAL REMOTE: - thanks to no (known) INDIVIDUAL VOLUME UNLOCK function and/or CHANNEL CONTROL UNLOCK function.<BR /></STRONG>- What is the point of being an All-in-One universal remote when it does not allow users to do the basic functions of other device's remotes? The URC-2125 does not allow the user to unlock the ability to control the volume of their AUDIO device separately to the volume of their TV (and/or Cable box), and also does not allow the user the ability to unlock and use the channel control buttons (number buttons and CH+/-) for their AVR and DVD/Blu-ray devices. Control remains locked to CABLE (i.e., the PVR).<BR />- The URC-1056 and, I believe, every PVR remote I've used (going back 15 years?) has had 'unlock' ability via the Setup button and a key sequence found in the remote's manual. (I've tried all previously-documented codes to no avail). So until now, I've always been able to control my TV and AVR volumes independently using the PVR's universal remote. (My high-end TV has a superb soundbar built-in, so the AVR, side speakers and sub are typically only used for prime-time viewing and sporting events, not for casual solo viewing or video game playing). And, in addition to AVR input switching --previously done by number pad on my universal remote, no longer possible-- when on my AVR's RADIO mode, I've always been able to switch between radio station presets using the CH+/- buttons, but can't do that any more because the buttons are locked to CABLE, so change the TV(PVR) channel.<BR />- I should mention that the Atlas URC-1056's DVD and VCR modes similarly disabled number key entry, though the CH+/- buttons were still functional (correct for the respective device). I don't know why the number keys were non-functional on that remote, but had always hoped that the next remote I got would not be crippled in the same manner. So finding that the URC-2125 has one fewer device capability but has cripped the AUDIO mode as well&nbsp; is a big disappointment. I've now got a stack of remotes on my coffee table again. Why are we going backwards not forwards?<BR /><FONT color="#FF0000">REQUEST FOR ROGERS: CAN YOU PLEASE CONTACT UEI AND INQUIRE-</FONT><BR /><FONT color="#FF0000">- WHY DOES THE URC-2125 NOT SEEM TO INCLUDE THE PER-DEVICE VOLUME AND CHANNEL UNLOCK MODES THAT PREVIOUS MODELS OF REMOTES HAD AND THAT ROGERS CUSTOMERS ARE ACCUSTOMED TO USING?</FONT><BR /><FONT color="#FF0000">- IF THE REMOTE IS CABABLE BUT THE FEATURES ARE SIMPLY NOT DOCUMENTED, WHAT ARE THE SETUP KEY SEQUENCES NEEDED?</FONT><BR /><BR /></LI></UL></UL><UL><LI><STRONG>BUG: - intermittently loses control of CABLE mode</STRONG><BR />- More than a few times already, I've been on CABLE mode, watching live or recorded programming, then picked up the remote to do something like change the channel or view the GUIDE, only to find the remote seemingly non-responsive. When I look at the remote and press a button again, I see all the buttons light up, but neither the CABLE button or any other device button light up, indicating that the remote has 'lost' its mode. Once I tap CABLE, everything works normally again... until the next that it randomly chooses not to.<BR /><BR /></LI><LI><STRONG>BUG: - when in IR mode, 3-minute skip function does not work</STRONG><BR />- When I first got the remote, I didn't immediately RF-pair it with my NB3, and I instead tested functionality compared to my old remote - and I noticed that the 3-minute skip function via PAGE+/PAGE- did not work. I was really disappointed! However after I RF-paired the remote with my NB3, 3-minute skip function was enabled. As 3-minute skip worked on the IR-only URC-1056, one would assume 3-minute skip should work on the URC-2125 in IR-mode.<BR /><BR /></LI><LI><STRONG>UNUSED &gt;| BUTTON DUE TO NAVIGATR feature loss</STRONG><BR />- The URC-2125 features a Skip to End button. Unfortunately, when Rogers introduced NAVIGATR, it removed this feature from our PVRs - so this button is currently unable to function.

<P>Even though I don't have one of these new ones and I'm not planning to get one, I have to jump in here.

The URC-1056 is by far the most ergonomic and I can never pick it up the wrong way. The Samsung TV one is the worst because it's&nbsp;symmetric top to bottom and half the time I have it backwards and have to look at it and turn it around. Why would designers do that?</P>

<P>One should not be surprised when different remotes have different functionality.&nbsp; I've had several different remotes over a period of roughly 15 years and each of them behaved differently. For example, one of the remotes was able to have direct access to various inputs on a Yamaha AVR that I have.&nbsp; The next remote behaved totally differently and didn't have the same type of direct input access (by pressing the number buttons for example).&nbsp; Some remotes can control TV inputs while others cannot.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>One also needs to remember that these remotes are not manufactured by Rogers, but rather URC.

<P>Guys, there should be another way to activate the FAV (Favourites) key, as well as the Picture in Picture key when no such key exists on the remote, its called EFC commands (Extended Function Control) commands. There is a 4 or 5 digit code you can enter to activate the function even if the remote does not contain the required button. I have not studied this new remote yet but I can definately do some tests to figure out how to get the fav and pip options back, I can even help you guys to program them as a macro into an existing unused key as well once I figure out.</P>

<P>Hello Everyone,</P>
<P>I picked up the Rogers RF remote (URC-2125) and want to&nbsp;provide feedback&nbsp;(further to the excellent post by <LI-USER uid="117620">﻿</LI-USER><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":disappointed_face:">😞</span></P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>- Pressing "Volume Up" or "Volume Down" transmits the signal to the TV only, not the AUDIO device (Yamaha amplifier)...even when I press "AUDIO" on the remote first.&nbsp; This is fine when using the TV's internal speakers, but NOT okay when using my amplifier for surround sound.&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>On the previous remote (URC-1056) the signal would be transmitted to the TV <U><STRONG>or</STRONG></U> AUDIO, depending on which mode the remote was in.&nbsp; The new method makes <STRONG>zero</STRONG> sense, since you now require the actual amplifier remote in hand, which defeats the purpose of having a universal remote.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>- Pressing "Video Source" transmits the signal to the TV only, not the AUDIO device (Yahama amplifier)...even when I press "AUDIO" on the remote first.&nbsp; This means I cannot change input sources on the amplifier with the Rogers remote.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>On the&nbsp;previous remote, the signal would be transmitted to the TV <U><STRONG>or</STRONG></U> AUDIO, depending on which mode the remote was in.&nbsp; This new method makes <STRONG>zero </STRONG>sense...since you now require the actual&nbsp;amplifier remote in hand...which defeats the purpose of having a universal remote control.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>- No "VCR" mode.&nbsp; Yes...I still have 2 of them that see periodic use.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P><STRONG>- </STRONG>The remote does&nbsp;not work with my living room TV (Vizio M70-C3).&nbsp; It caused my Vizio **to stop responding to any IR input, even from the TV remote...unless the remote was pressed directly up to the IR sensor window***.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>After fixing this issue by performing a TV factory reset, I tried again.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>And again...the Vizio stopped responding to any IR input, unless the remote was pressed up against the IR sensor window.&nbsp; I performed another factory reset, and it now works properly.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>- The remote does not pair to my NextBox 3 via RF.&nbsp; Held "Setup" + "Up Arrow" buttons (as directed) till lights flashed, then waited.&nbsp;&nbsp; Does not control box any better than it did before, and it does not work if pointed away from the box.&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>The&nbsp;remote also continues to control other devices (NextBox 2), which tells me it is still operating in IR mode.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>These are severe regressions in functionality that, for me, are "deal-breakers".&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>Looking for the community to chime in - are you seeing the same issues?

<P>Need help.&nbsp; I think I've accidentally set it to some weird mode where it's expecting a 3-digit code after I hit a particular key.&nbsp; For example, when I was trying to navigate to channel 500 and it was not accepting the 0-keys, what was actually happening is that after pressing 5 it, basically, ignored the next 3 presses.&nbsp; After pressing any three keys the cable light would blink twice, and after that I could press another key.&nbsp; Except that by this time the PVR had already navigated to channel 5.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Maybe I'm not describing it clearly, but I've noticed this pattern.&nbsp; While I thought some keys were being unresponsive, in reality it looked like the remote was waiting for a specific input of three key-presses (some code?) before it "confirmed" the entry by flashing the cable key two times.&nbsp; Until those three&nbsp; keys had been pressed it was not sending *any* signal to the PVR (either RF or IR).</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>So I think what I need to do now is some kind of factory reset and start from scratch.&nbsp; It really is almost useless now (or at leas very infuriating).&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P>Thu, 30 Jun 2016 16:32:23 GMThttps://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/TV/New-Rogers-RF-remote/m-p/359104#M39086MrMontagoose2016-06-30T16:32:23ZRe: New Rogers RF remotehttps://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/TV/New-Rogers-RF-remote/m-p/359105#M39087

<P>Hello,</P>
<P>Great question - the HDMI-CEC connection between my primary TV (Vizio M70-C3) and amplifier (Yamaha A-720) is a bit wonky, and has never worked correctly (using Monoprice Redmere HDMI 1.4a cable, also tested with Monoprice 18AWG HDMI cable) - I disabled HDMI-CEC / ARC.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>I will try setting the "CBL" mode to control the volume when I get home (early Canada Day celebrations ongoing!).&nbsp; If memory serves, it adjusted the TV volume only (until I performed that procedure to bind it to AUDIO, at which point it only adjusted the amplifier).</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>My other amp (secondary HT) is a pre-HDMI Yamaha RX-V520, no HDMI-CEC.&nbsp; The remote control volume buttons on the old Yamaha remote are busted and don't work, but other buttons work fine (just my luck!).&nbsp; I was able to dig up a very old URC-1056 (<A href="http://img0102.psstatic.com/158306537_--cable-universal-remote-control-urc1056-1056b03-for-tv-.jpg" target="_self">looks like this one</A>) that shipped with a 4250HD, and am using this as a backup/floater to control the RX-V520.&nbsp; The remote for the A-720 also works, if required.</P>
